Asymptotic equivalence between sequence-divisor sets and irregular-prime sets

Let QH(x)\mathcal Q_H(x), QH(x)\mathcal Q_{H^-}(x), and QH+(x)\mathcal Q_{H^+}(x) count the prime divisors up to xx of the HH-, HH^--, and H+H^+-sequences, respectively. Let PG(x)\mathcal P_G(x), PH(x)\mathcal P_{H^-}(x), and PH+(x)\mathcal P_{H^+}(x) count the corresponding irregular primes. Assume that the associated Wieferich sets are o(x/logx)o(x/\log x). Sequence-divisor asymptotic conjecture. Asymptotically,

QH(x)PG(x),QH(x)PH(x),QH+(x)PH+(x).\mathcal Q_H(x)\sim\mathcal P_G(x),\qquad \mathcal Q_{H^-}(x)\sim\mathcal P_{H^-}(x),\qquad \mathcal Q_{H^+}(x)\sim\mathcal P_{H^+}(x).

Here the asymptotics of the irregular-prime counting functions are supplied by the paper's preceding conjectures. The assertion reduces the divisor-counting problem to irregular-prime counting once the Wieferich sets are negligible; this negligibility itself is assumed rather than known.
